EPD: Carpet tile with nylon yarn and polyester backing, 6.4 mm, 60.69 cm x 60.96 cm, 3.08 kg/m2, EcoSolution Q100™ (Shaw Industries Group)
This Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) covers the EcoWorx carpet tile with EcoSolution Q100 face fiber, ranging from 12 ounces/yd2 to 60 ounces/yd2, with a weighted average face weight of 20.1 ounces/yd2. The carpet tiles are manufactured in Plant 15 (Cartersville, Georgia) and Plant T1 (Adairsville, Georgia). EcoSolution Q100 face fiber is Nylon 6 with 100% post-industrial (pre-consumer) recycled content. The EcoWorx backing system is 100% PVC-free, consisting of a thermoplastic polyolefin compound, recycled materials (100% post-industrial filler and 100% post-industrial regrind), and a fiberglass secondary reinforcement layer. The face fiber is tufted into a polyester primary backing and latex (high-performance precoat) is added to hold in the fiber. The properties of this product include (a) higher stability but 40% less weight than PVC, (b) lower VOCs and lower smoke density than PVC, and (c) superior delamination and edge ravel strength. The EcoWork backing system with a secondary fiberglass backing is then applied followed by a topical layer. As part of the re[TURN] Reclamation Program, EcoWorx carpet tile with EcoSolution Q100 face fiber can be recycled in its entirety and be made into more EcoWorx carpet tile. The EcoWorx carpet tile with EcoSolution Q100 face fiber is intended for indoor application in a commercial setting.
